Hey Panda.
I just wanned to know:
If a player dont has his cl_disablehtmlmotd to 0, are there somewhere he just can push a buttom or something to set his cl_disablehtmlmotd to 0, if he doesn't have it ?
Cuz that could make it a lot easier for the player.

The only methods of changing it are via console (cl_disablehtmlmotd 0), or via the instructions that are provided by !motdhelp ~ escape/options/multiplayer/advanced/uncheck/apply.

Okay thx

so its not possible in any way, to fx. make an menu then you type !motdhelp
where it says: "You are not allowed to play on this server without cl_disablehtmlmotd 0 active" or sometking like that, and then i could say, "Press 2 to change your cl_disablehtmlmotd to 0"
that ain't possible in any way at all or what? :s

**edit**
And i forgot:
I tried this pluging, (Thumbs up thx ) on my server, but it just said that "You are not allowed to play on this server without cl_disablehtmlmotd 0 active" , but dind't prevent me from joining a team ?

And i don't know, if its only on my server this bug comes up. (its not a big deal on a FFA server but anyway)
my radar acted weird. i joined a team, and the on the radar, ppl are just big red and blue dots xD (don't know why, but i wonted you to know it)

**edit**
okay lol, i removed the addon from the server, and turned it on, shut it down and installed it agian. now the bug is gone xD (weird)

No, the server cannot change client-side cvars, for good reason. Don't want to join a server and have it override all your settings.

@Dr. MsKay Oh, i see. of cause. xD

_ But i still got problem with the "prevent players joining a team" thing. i doesen't wotk.

I'd have to guess that you have a plugin that is getting past the redundant code to keep a player in spectate; can you post a sm plugins list? Next update I'll throw in some CS:S specific code and simply block jointeam/joinclass when the motd is disabled, but used the generic method so that TF2 might benefit.

Revision v1.0.2
- Removed cstrike dependency (why it was there, who knows)
- Removed a random LogError left over from testing phase
- Added optional cstrike support for preventing jointeam/joinclass from functioning if motd is disabled
- Added further checks to ensure players stay on spectate if motd is disabled.

my SM plugins:
addadmin
admin-flatfile
adminhelp
adminmenu
advertisements
antiflood
antirejoin
basebans
basechat
basecomm
basecommands
basetriggers
basevotes
clientprefs
funcommands
funvotes
lastx
nextmap
playercommands
reservedslots
sm_force_html_motd
Resetscore
sounds
vbping

**edit**
this is just weird, i removed the pluing, downloaded v1.0.2 and now it works.

this is a great plugin, and thx for the help !

MOTD would work both cl_disablehtmlmotd 0/1
when you remove all HTML code and add only text in motd.txt

Or file what you have set in cvar
"motdfile" = "motd.txt"
game
- The MOTD file to load.


As currently this cvar have no effect...
"motdfile_text" = "motd_text.txt"
game
- The text-only MOTD file to use for clients that have disabled HTML MOTDs.


This was troll post , use plugin if you like

[thetwistedpanda]

If they're using a text based motd they're not having any problems and would have no reason to use this plugin >.<.

Revision 1.0.3
- Quick update to solve an error being thrown due to messy handle code.
